On the way back from Falmouth to Hayle, we stopped in Carnhell Green to carry out a quick but rewarding job on an Isuzu Rodeo. The owner wanted a little more power and torque from his workhorse – and just enough of a boost to make sure it was quicker than his partner’s VW! Performance Remap Results The Isuzu Rodeo left the factory with 138BHP, but thanks to our performance remapping service we were able to deliver a much more lively drive. The difference was described by the owner as “really noticeable” — exactly the kind of feedback we love to hear. While raw BHP figures don’t always tell the whole story, what really matters is: Every driver has different expectations, but in our experience, turbo diesels offer some of the best gains when tuned correctly. Neighbourhood Interest in Performance Tuning One of our favourite things about these jobs is that when neighbours see and hear the improvements, they often want the same for their own vehicles. Word of mouth and real-world results are the best adverts for what we do here at Kernowsport. 👉 Considering a remap for your car, van, or pickup? Check out our Stage 1 remapping

After completing a Land Rover Freelander remap in Wadebridge, Simon asked us to look at his Ford Raptor for a performance upgrade. Several other tuners had already turned him down, saying it couldn’t be done. But at Kernowsport, we pride ourselves on having the specialist tools and expertise to take on jobs that others can’t. The First Ford Raptor Remap of Its Kind Thanks to our Magic Motorsport Flex tool, we were able to access the Raptor’s ECU where others had failed. This wasn’t a straightforward process — nobody in the UK had remapped this particular model before, so we had to have a custom file written specifically for it. The result? Close to 400BHP unleashed from this mighty truck. 👉 Learn more about our approach to ECU remapping in Cornwall. A Beast on Cornish Roads Once the work was complete, Simon took his Raptor out for a drive and was blown away by the results. Despite its size and weight, the remapped Raptor now pulls like a missile — combining brute power with smooth delivery. At Kernowsport, that’s exactly what we aim for: performance you can feel, tailored to the individual vehicle. Why Choose Kernowsport for Performance Tuning? 👉

At Kernowsport, it often works out that one job leads to another. After finishing a job in Wadebridge, we received a call from Simon asking us to look at two vehicles — a Land Rover Freelander and a new Ford Raptor. Naturally, the Raptor was tempting, but the first task of the day was to remap the Freelander, which belonged to his daughter. Freelander Remap: A Trusted Upgrade This particular Freelander was a 2004 model running the trusty TD4 diesel engine. While older engines don’t always produce the dramatic gains of modern turbocharged units, we were still able to achieve a performance increase of around 40bhp. That extra power means: 👉 For more details on how we transform vehicles across Cornwall, visit our ECU Remapping page.

At Kernowsport, no two days are ever the same. Today’s work took us across Hayle, Penryn and Pool, covering a variety of jobs that kept us on our toes. Mini Diagnostics in Hayle The first callout was close to home in Hayle, where a little Mini was suffering from a flat battery and a faulty control unit. A quick diagnosis confirmed the problem, and we were able to advise the owner on the most cost-effective repair to get them back on the road. If you’re in Hayle or nearby and need vehicle diagnostics, we’re fully equipped with advanced tools to track down faults quickly and accurately. Immobiliser Issue for a Local Joinery in Penryn Next, we headed to Penryn, where a local joinery business — who also help us with ply lining and carpeting — were experiencing issues with their van. The culprit turned out to be a faulty immobiliser ring in the steering column, a frustrating but common fault on some vans. At Kernowsport, we know how vital vans are to local businesses, so we always prioritise fast roadside or on-site support to minimise downtime. VW Caddy 2K Remap in Pool The final jobs of the day took us

Sometimes the jobs just keep coming, and even on a Saturday afternoon, Kernowsport were called out to Long Rock, near Penzance for a Stage 1 performance remap on a 2009 Audi TT 2.0 TFSI. Unlike many of our jobs, this one was carried out right on the street outside a garage. Passers-by must have thought we were working on one of their cars — but this was all about giving an Audi TT a serious boost in performance. The TT left the factory with 197bhp, but after our remap, it was pushing just under 260bhp. That’s a gain well worth having, particularly in a sporty coupe designed for spirited driving. When the owner took it for a spin, the feedback was exactly what we like to hear: “It feels a lot quicker but also smoother.” This is typical of a Kernowsport remap — not only do we increase power, but we optimise how that power is delivered, improving drivability as well as outright performance.

Job number three today was a special one — this cracking condition 2014 Land Rover Defender travelled all the way from Exeter to see us at Kernowsport after a recommendation from one of our happy customers in Wadebridge. Normally, when we see Land Rovers, they’re working vehicles that have been well used (and often abused!) in commercial settings. But this example was different. Finished in black with a plush leather interior, it was easily one of the nicest Defenders we’ve seen, and it really stood out as a customer vehicle rather than a workhorse. The owner had booked in for a Stage 1 performance remap, and within just 20 minutes, we added an impressive +50 BHP. That’s a gain the owner will definitely feel on the drive back to Exeter, making the Defender more capable both on and off-road.

We don’t often get jobs quite like this one! At 9am sharp on Saturday, we received a call from a couple having trouble with their Hymer camper while on holiday in Cornwall. These motorhomes are usually built on the Fiat Ducato chassis, which makes them pretty standard for us to work on — but this one was a real palace inside. The timing wasn’t ideal, as I was in the queue at Philps Pasties in Hayle, ready to stock up for our friends at Harts Haulage in Pool. But at Kernowsport, helping customers comes first, so I put the pasty run on hold and agreed to meet the customer at the Asda car park nearby. To make things trickier, I was in our VW Caddy work van instead of the usual Ducato service van, so I was hoping I had enough tools with me for the job. On inspection, it turned out the Hymer wasn’t suffering from failed injectors after all — it was a wiring issue. We arranged to drive the camper up to the workshop in Pool, and thankfully it was a straightforward fix without any need for expensive replacement parts. In the spirit of good Cornish hospitality,

This VW Caddy Mk4 2K 2.0 in Hayle is one of our own vehicles and will soon become our next mobile mapping van. At Kernowsport, we’ve always loved working on VWs — they’re straightforward to tune, reliable, and always deliver impressive performance gains. Our Caddy started life as the 102BHP model, but after applying a Kernowsport ECU remap, it now produces a very healthy 200BHP. That makes it one of the quickest mapping vans in Cornwall, and we can’t wait to put it through its paces around the county. This is actually the second VW Caddy in our fleet, and we’ve got plans for a few tasteful modifications to make it stand out on Cornwall’s roads. If you see us out and about, don’t be shy — stop and say hello!

This job was a little different from our usual day-to-day work. It’s not every day we get to work on an old-school sports car, but this 2002 Nissan 350Z in Penzance was a real treat. Although it’s now 25 years old, it still feels modern in many ways — though not the most comfortable, it remains an absolute beast to drive, with a roar that makes you smile every time it starts up. Normally aspirated engines like this don’t always respond dramatically to a tune, but with our Kernowsport ECU remap, we were able to improve both power and drivability. The owner was delighted with how much smoother and more responsive it felt, proving that even older performance cars can still benefit from modern tuning techniques. At Kernowsport, we love variety. From high-mileage work vans to modern diesels and even classic sports cars like this 350Z, our goal is always the same — to make vehicles perform at their best and keep their owners happy. If you have something a bit unusual, old, or interesting, we’d love to see it!
